The dowry problem wears a serious face, when its been forced upon or coerced. The results of this horrid side may vary from bad to worse.
1. Divorce
2. Torture
3. Suicide
4. Murder yeah, that's the biggest problem, when it is been forced! but nowadays, it seems to me that this is going down. a relative of mine was talking to my mum and she was saying that if the groom's family asks for dowry, we wouldn't give our girl to them and that nowadays that is the case with most pple.

but she also said, but of course, we will give sth for our daughter when she gets married. which leads us to another problem, that is, the groom's family might behave decently and not ask for dowry, but perhaps only cos they are confident that the girl's family will do sth for her. so what does that say abt the groom and his family then?
